Any one have any Idea were the htpatch.exe comes from and what does it do ? I have it in my Window Task manager ussing 1,616k mem. But havent notice any CPU useage yet. I did find out what i can do to disarm it. But the thing is is it somthing I need. I am posting ( COPY/PASTE )a message I got off another forum But still there not sure what it does.Only how to disarm it in the Window task manager>system.INI. Any one have any good clues? "You donīt have to install HT Patch.exe, just look in the "setup.ini" and change the "1" to "0" instead, like this: Before: [Select] AgpForIDE133Set=0 USBRegSet=1 AGPUtil=0 HTpatch=1 MPS3=0 After: [Select] AgpForIDE133Set=0 USBRegSet=1 AGPUtil=1 HTpatch=0 MPS3=0 Add "1" for AGPUtil if you want that one too... " Thanks Mike

Got the to my own question LOL. http://computing.net/cgi-bin/wwwboard.pl?office HTpatch.exe is part of the SiS AGP patch - BUT unless your processor (and motherboard) supports HyperThreading (HT) and this feature is enabled it will actually SLOW your graphics card by around 6%

I too have this .exe as TSR and am running SiS drivers, in WinXP, but I have nothing like what you pasted here. Perhaps due to revised drivers. I'd really like to get rid of this "extra"
